Build a versatile circular knitting needle for everything from everyday garments to shawls, blankets and larger projects with ChiaoGoo TWIST 13cm interchangeable needle tips.
Precision-machined from surgical-grade stainless steel, these premium tips feature ChiaoGoo’s signature satin finish and finely tapered lace-style points. They offer an excellent balance of smooth glide and control, making them comfortable to use across a wide range of yarns and knitting styles.
The 13cm tip length is ChiaoGoo’s standard interchangeable size and is ideal for knitters who prefer a longer, more traditional needle feel. Pair them with the appropriate ChiaoGoo cable to create circular needles for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, blankets, magic loop knitting and other medium to large projects.
Each pack contains one pair of 13cm tips in the selected needle size. Cables are sold separately.
Why Choose 13cm Interchangeable Tips?
The longer 13cm length provides more room to hold the needle comfortably, making these tips a great choice for general knitting and longer sessions.
They are especially suited to medium and large circular needle lengths. Attach a longer cable for garments, shawls, blankets or magic loop knitting, then change the cable without needing to purchase another full circular needle.
Choosing the Correct Connection Size
ChiaoGoo interchangeable tips use different connection sizes depending on the needle diameter.
MINI [M] connection:
- 2.25mm / US 1
- 2.50mm / US 1.5
SMALL [S] connection:
- 2.75mm / US 2
- 3.00mm / US 2.5
- 3.25mm / US 3
- 3.50mm / US 4
- 3.75mm / US 5
- 4.00mm / US 6
- 4.50mm / US 7
- 5.00mm / US 8
LARGE [L] connection:
- 5.50mm / US 9
- 6.00mm / US 10
Make sure the cable connection matches the selected tip size. MINI [M], SMALL [S] and LARGE [L] connections are not directly interchangeable without the appropriate adapter.
Recommended Cable Pairings
The finished circular needle length includes both tips and the cable.
- 35cm cable creates approximately a 60cm circular
- 55cm cable creates approximately an 80cm circular
- 75cm cable creates approximately a 100cm circular
- 93cm cable creates approximately a 120cm circular
- 125cm cable creates approximately a 152cm circular
The 20cm cable is not recommended with 13cm tips because the finished circular would be too short to use comfortably.

Why Knitters Love ChiaoGoo TWIST Tips
ChiaoGoo TWIST tips are widely loved for their precision, durability and comfortable feel. The stainless steel surface allows stitches to move smoothly, while the satin finish provides enough grip to maintain control.
Their finely tapered points make it easier to work increases, decreases, cables, lace patterns and detailed stitches. The longer 13cm length offers a familiar feel in the hand and is especially comfortable for knitters working on garments and larger projects.
